The ultimate ancestor of Fin Fang Foom! The First Giant Monster To Stride ‘Pon The Earth! Each of his knucklebones is the size of a Buick! His rearmost left canine fang could be turned into a house, assuming you dislodged it from him, hollowed it out and didn’t mind walls made of dragon-enamel!

FIN FANG FEAR!

He died one hundred thousand years ago, but promised his killers that he would live again – and punish the world for their insult! He is very sensitive! He hates it when people insult him! It is probably a result of his relationship with his father! Whom he killed, thus forever robbing him of the chance to find true, lasting closure! So he will find closure in conquest and annihilation!

FIN FANG FEAR!

Forget all that crap about closure! Fin Fang Fear needs no closure! He is closure! Closure incarnate!

FIN FANG FEAR!

His breath is hatred! His soul is poison! His eyes stare into one billion souls at once, and find every last one wanting! He has come to wreak havoc from beyond the grave! Fear him! FEAR HIM!

I just want to write a story where Dr. Strange fights a giant skeleton monster with magical zappy bolts and maybe team up with Fin Fang Foom and if that is wrong then I DO NOT WANT TO BE RIGHT.

Top comment:I want this to be a Max series so that someone gets to say “Fin Fang Fuck You.”

Sad to say, there was a sorta-version of this during “The Amalgam Age of Comics”: Fin Fang Flame, an amalgamation of Fin Fang Foom and Brimstone, summoned so as to destroy and devour all mutated variations of humanity (for some reason) and full of weird snark.

Lurker: Fin Fang Foom is a joke name. It does not serve any argument to claim Dormammu is a joke by his lack of deeds and then claim “Fin Fang Foom” is not a joke when his name inspires images of magic smoke.

Fin Fang Fear is slightly better, but Fin Fang Foom sounds like the name you’d give to a genie on Nickelodeon.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with Dr. Strange fighting a dragon, undead or not. This could be done badly, but if you think the concept itself is too goofy to be used, then I propose that you do not have enough joy in your life or your interest of comic books.

The problem is, Fin Fang Fear just doesn’t roll off the tongue like Fin Fang Foom does. And the name Fin Fang Foom has no purpose except to roll off the tongue. I mean, if you get up in a crowded subway car and yell out, “FIN FANG FOOM! HE HAS NO GENITALS TO SPEAK OFF!”, then people will cheer and women will offer you sexual favors. But if you yell out, “FIN FANG FEAR! HIS BREATH IS THE FIRE OF PERDITION!”, then people will laugh at you and then hit you and take your wallet.

The problem with using the Nextwave version of Fin Fang Foom is that the Roger Langridge version (from Fin Fang Four) is so much better (miniaturized, prosecuted, plea-bargained, now on a work-release program as a a waiter in a Chinese restaurant) is such a better character.

(…)

Oh! Apparently the hardcover OHOTMU confirms that the Nextwave version was a BEYOND corporation clone of the Langridge version (made pre-miniaturization)! So I guess they’re both available!
